Week 29: Small Loss

Well you 0.4kg is nothing to sneeze at, particularly since I've been quite unfocussed this week. I've let little things go a little, like not pointing everything like I normally do. Lucky I walked five times this week! I think the exercise is what really helps me. Not much else to say, other than, I hope for a bigger number next week and to break the 15kg loss barrier!

Week 28: And down they went...

You know that .9 I gained last week? Well the gods of weight loss success took it back again this week! I'm proud. I'm proud because:
* I lost weight over Easter - almost a whole kg!
* I still ate chocolate every day but factored it in and walked for 5 hours over the week to allow for this.
* I didn't feel deprived or sorry for myself over Easter.
* I learned it was okay to have just a little chocolate and really enjoy it, instead of scoffing it guiltily.
I know without a shadow of a doubt that I will make it to goal. There will be no quitting. It has taken me a long time to change, but now I don't want to go back to how I was. What a half life. I see poor buggers lining up for McDonalds, KFC etc in food courts, and I think , you don't know what you're missing - there is a whole world of wonderful, exciting flavours out there. Stop eating fried, tasteless crap! How things have changed...

Week 27: Put on

Yes, eating whatever you want and not exercising soon catches up with you. For me, in the form of .9 kg. This is a journey I'm on, and I'm making my fair share of mistakes, as well as learning lots too. Life shows me again and again that committment to the cause is rewarded, and when I treat my body how it should be treated, the scales go down. When I don't, well....this week has proved what happens. Anyway, a bit sad but as I always say, the minute you step on the scales your new week starts. And mine has started. Next week, those scales are going down....

Week 26: Loss of 400grams & New Bra!

So today I lost .4 which I was quite happy with, since I had gone over my points on a couple of the days, even though generally I had a good week. Next week I intend to make my 15kg total loss. Grand total this week: 14.3kgs.

Last week I had my hair done as a reward for getting my ten percent, and in photos I took of my baby boy and I, I could see the difference in my face. I just feel so much better. In my body. In my energy levels. My clothes are looser and I'm buying new ones. I'm glowing a little bit more....

Oh and today I bought the first bra I've bought since I was pregnant, since before I lost this weight. Its lovely and silky and black and lacy. Woooo hooo. It fits very well and is comfortable. And I can wear underwire now!! I'm no longer breastfeeding. Out of the maternity bras and back into nice ones!

This is a picture of my baby boy and I.... He's protesting about getting his photo taken hehe
